Conflicts Occur (Human Steven x Human Spinel Gang AU)

Chp 12 (distractions)

    "Everything all set?" Aquamarine asked, sipping a pint of beer as she looked at Spinel. "Yes everything is all set and ready, I just have to do my part and everything shall go as planned" Spinel answered, taking a shot of Jack Daniels. "For now, we're here to survey the crowd correct?" Aquamarine asked, her eyes looking over the patrons of the club. "Yes, at Ten O'Clock is when the meeting happens, that's when we strike" Spinel grumbled, "no innocent lives will be harmed tonight, well, at least we'll try not to have any innocent lives taken" she chuckled lowly. "Yeesh, do we have to stay here until it happens?" The blue haired British female yawned, honestly she was quite bored. "Not me, you know what I have to do. I have to lure Steven far away where he won't alert his friends that I'm here. Because, if he sees me, game over...." Spinel mumbled. She recalled that earlier on, she left a note on Stevens makeup table, forging Connie's signature on the paper, which read "Steven, I need to speak to you urgently. Meet me inside the lighthouse at 9:30, love Connie". "Looks like loverboy is about to perform~" Aquamarine teased, giving Spinel a nudge with her elbow. "Loverboy?" Spinel questioned, then it dawned on her that Aquamarine was talking about Steven."oh c'mon, I know that you've been craving to have Steven wrapped around you, and in more ways then one~" Aquamarine chuckled before taking another sip of her pint of beer. "Don't make me end your life in more ways than one..." Spinel growled, downing another shot of Jack Daniels and slamming the empty shot glass back on the table. "Don't deny the fact that I am right~" Aquamarine chuckled, giving her usual shit eating grin. Spinel only rolled her eyes in response, mumbling obscenities to herself before a type of electric jazz music began, which made both females eye the stage. Spinel noticed that Garnet was holding a microphone instead of Steven, and the male was playing a type of keyboard when Garnet began to sing.

Oh, when a difficult day goes by
Keeping it together is hard but that's why
You've got to try
You've got to try
And when there's a thundering storm outside
Underneath the covers you huddle and hide
Open your eyes
Open your eyes

It's the true, it's the true
It's the true kinda love
It's the true, it's the true
It's the true kinda love

Stuck in the middle of fear and shame
Everybody's looking for someone to blame
Like it's a game
Like it's a game
And now I am better than "win-or-lose"
There's a new direction that I'd like to choose
It's called the truth
It's called the truth

As soon as Garnet paused, Stevens voice joined in

Hey, you, show me that solvable problem
We can get through this
I'll do the hardest part with you

As soon as Steven was done singing, Garnet then resumed her part

It's the true, it's the true
It's the true kinda love
It's the true, it's the true
It's the true kinda love
It's the true, it's the true
It's the true kinda love
It's the true, it's the true
It's the true kinda love

    Spinel was still watching the stage when the song ended, she wasn't expecting that kind of performance, especially a duet that consisted of Garnet and Steven. "Well I can see exactly why you can't stop listening to his singing~" Aquamarine commented, noticing that Spinel was still staring even when the two had left the stage. "H-Huh? Did you say something?" Spinel asked, shaking her head a little bit to focus back on what was at hand. "Nothing, looks like your mind was elsewhere as usual, like it has been for the past two months~" Aquamarine simply stated while smirking, "it's almost time by the way, you should get going" she stated before finishing her beer. "Yea yea, I'll see you when you survive" Spinel nonchalantly stated before getting up from their corner table and heading out of the club. As long as everything went according to plan, Steven would live and maybe possibly submit to Spinel tonight. Steven saw the note when he arrived at work earlier and he honestly believed that Connie was the one who wrote the note, even though something in his guy was telling him that something was off.
